If you don't get a rick and morty vibe from the pacing, animation, and humor in the first few episodes

I'm genuinely trying to figure out what you're referencing. Because the pilot episode of R&M had Rick drooling and shitting himself for half the episode while Morty just kinda wailed in terror in a hail of space-themed gunfire. And there was nothing remotely like that in Lower Decks.

I get the sense that you're just looking at the cell-shaded art style and drawing all your conclusions off of that. Or maybe you saw a two hour long YouTube brain-emulsifier video that tries to do some sort of weird shot-for-shot comparison between scenes in the most mind-numbing and pedantic format possible. Maybe you just had the capacity for enjoyment melted out of you. Idk. But you're comparing apples to anvils.

you have an ideological commitment to not liking rick and morty

I don't even not like R&M. They're a very shit-or-miss show. When they hit, its very enjoyable. But other than being an animated comedy High Sci-Fi show, there's no comparison. Might as well say Star Wars and Star Trek are the same because they both have Wizards and happen in space.

It's a shame we never invented a Space-Time machine

They're 100% right tho

They are not

Most of season 1 was just "what if Rick and Mort was in space still, but star trek?"

You can just say you've never seen the show

They've done a little bit of that in the latest season. Honestly, some of the best episodes

just you wait until they get ai to sift through that data.

The software that hallucinates?

flagging us as tankies and hunting us down is probably gonna start getting more and more practical for them to actually do

They're coming for me because I post too damned good

Pulling Biden off the ballot of states he'll lose by 20 points and then letting Dems blame the residents there for not voting hard enough.

Monumental amounts of data that nobody really knows what to do with.

The panopticon is great for justifying something after the fact, but awful for any kind of actual detective work or deterrence.

I think the beetles came first and humans are more of a Avant Garde experiment that went off the rails. And that's why he doesn't make any more of us.

Sure, most people will get away with it but it still sucks for the few that don't.

This Act will not affect whether you get caught playing copy written music in the slightest.

Yuzu was implicated in the "Tears of the Kingdom" leak, not just the emulation.

YouTube-DL is a 17-year-old application that still continues to appear to be widely available despite the take-down notice.

Neither are what I'd call "home rolled". They're both widely published and distributed.

74% of my home costs go to non-home based expenses.

Also, please note that property taxes in my home state of Texas are some of the highest in the nation. Even then, I'm shelling out a good $300/mo on insurance.

Which means the monthly cost of home ownership in an ostensibly low-cost-of-living state is:

  • $609 - The Bank

  • $504 - The House amortized over 30 years

  • $470 - The state of Texas / city of Houston

  • $307 - Insurance Company

And please note that this is fucking cheap for my area. $1900/mo was a steal when I nailed it down back in 2018. But the $500/mo that actually goes to the actual house would have been even better. One might even argue it is the real material cost of living. Maybe add in another $400 or so if you squint and don't ask how much is just going to Cops, Cops, and More Cops or inquire too hard about the state of our streets or schools.

But every time I pay my note, I'm forced to reconcile with this and think about all the people who are told they've been "priced out".

With content like this, who would even know we're in a writers' strike?

 

One part Great Man Theory with tons of navel gazing and genuflecting to a handful of star figures. One part Sorkin-esque courtroom drama.

Zero parts fun.

Three fucking hours long.

Don't waste your money on this shit bag, folks.
